When I wrote the first MMO, I had no intention of it being a series but the response to that post was very positive and... so it began.

This MMO is numbered 198 but over four years I've occasionally re-posted previous offerings - though never without at least a little tweaking, editing and redacting of the first posting. In light of that, the number of unique Monday morning prayers is probably around 170.

To celebrate the fourth anniversary I'm re-posting the first Monday Morning Offering and the illustration (below) that accompanied it. After just a few weeks of MMO's, I adopted the illustration you've become familiar with (above) and I'm grateful to George Mendoza for his gracious permission to use his artwork (Coffee in the Morning) over these four years. If you haven't yet checked out George's site, please do that today.

Um... Sorry about the bad grammar in my comment this morning ("have helped given me" ? I don't know what I was thinking- I wrote it while I was on the bus on my way to work -I guess there's no way I could edit that after it was published?

Are you thinking about becoming a Catholic?

The best place to start is always one of your local Catholic churches. Drop in some Sunday and see what's going on. Then you might speak to the pastor or someone on the parish staff about how they can help you and respond to your questions.
